    CATIA V5 user-defined connections start-middle-end options

    My question is regarding the definition of user-defined constraints in the context of a Catia V5(r14) FEM analysis. The dialog box for user-defined constraints asks you to define start-middle-end. What do start, middle and end exactly represent? Also, is there an easy way to explain all the...

    Good day, My question is regarding the definition of user-defined constraints in the context of a Catia V5 FEM analysis. The dialog box for user-defined constraints asks you to define start-middle-end. What do start and end exactly represent? (I have read the help files on this but am still a...

    Problems with contact elements in CATIA V5 analysis

    I defined every possible connection (using analysis connections and then applying contact, slider and restraints to them) I can think of between the rivet and the plate... If I don't correctly restrain the pin vertically it moves freely and creates a singularity...as soon as I restrain it...

    Problems with contact elements in CATIA V5 analysis

    Good day everyone, I am presently trying to learn myself to use the FEM package that comes with V5(R14 sp6e). To make things simple I decided to model 2 plates fastened with two rivets...seemed easy enough at the time!! I modelled the two plates clamped one the plates and loaded the other. I...
